Paradox of Achilles

Pax - [peaceful]

Pax is eagerly talking to Grandpaw Dante\'s Inferno, asking him for advice on how to be respected by others. Grandpaw Dante\'s Inferno proudly tells them how he made everyone respect him by regaling the cub with some exaggerated "amazing adventure" from when he was younger. Yeah, right, old man! You were there when that all happened, and it's not even close to how it really went down. Not wanting to break the cub's enamoured concentration, though, you simply turn and trot off, leaving Grandpaw Dante\'s Inferno to puff up his ego with false tales.

You were feeling a little bit of anxiety over the rumor that the hyenas would attack soon. Pax sat next to you, however, and told you that he would proudly stand by your side no matter what happens.

You heard last night that Pax cleared some fallen branches and brush from a path near the den. Now the lionesses can drag prey back easier! Nice!

You were about to settle in to munch your breakfast, but Shaman Pax stopped you. He pointed out that some of the meat had gone bad. Thanks for the save, bro.

"Pax would make a wonderful king," says the young broodmother, Tal, as she wrestled a feather from the jaws of a cub. "But the title has already been promised to his half-brother, Prince Hagen." A shudder wracks her body. "Maybe, as shaman, he'll be able to convince Hagen to be kind." We can only hope.

It was so sudden, a swoop and a roar, King Hagen was gone. Pax stood triumphant - though tears gleamed in his eyes. This pride would have a kind King after all.

ooh my baby. pax i'm gonna miss you
